# Getting Started

:tada: Welcome to the MetaSleuth User Manual! :tada:

MetaSleuth is a comprehensive platform designed to track and investigate on-chain assets, catering to diverse analysis needs. To facilitate a quick start with this tool, we have included four key topics in the "Getting Started" section:

1. [Start by a Simple Search](/user-manual/getting-started/start-by-a-simple-search.md): Quickly find specific addresses or transactions using the search function to access relevant data and insights.
2. [Start by a Shared Chart](/user-manual/getting-started/start-by-a-shared-chart.md): Collaborate and build upon existing visualizations by exploring shared charts created by other users.
3. [What are Nodes?](/user-manual/getting-started/what-are-nodes.md) Understand the concept of nodes, which represent entities such as addresses or contracts within the blockchain network.
4. [What are Edges?](/user-manual/getting-started/what-are-edges.md) Learn about edges, which illustrate the relationships and transactions between nodes, providing context to the data you analyze.
